The London Evening-Post reports on Danish and Swedish naval movements near Copenhagen, French actions in Westphalia, Prussian casualties, and shifting garrisons. It notes Milan style orders, Austrian troop positions, and scattered market and weather notes from Bath and Penrith. The issue includes a satirical description of the “Land of Promise” and political commentary on reforms and economy.
News from Edinburgh reports that two Bourdeaux ships unloading tobacco were unrigged and held by the governor until four merchant-ships with provisions sailed. Afterward they were allowed to rig and sail, while the French fleet had only two frigates for convoy. Also, the Christian Rutherford arrived at Leith from Konigsberg with flax and was taken off St Abb's Head and ransomed for 500 guineas.
